I love these. I bought a little donut maker on sale at Macys, and I make these little donuts all the time. They do have that strong artificial sweetener flavor. The chocolate flavor makes up for it!!!!!

I never know what to expect from "low-carb" foods, having had some real icky experiences. But let me tell you, this one scores the highest, the bestest, the greatest! They are so good, I even served them to people who weren't concerned about carbs, and they loved them! The only problem was in not eating them all at once! I promise, you will go, "hmm, which should I have, chocolate or glazed? Glazed or chocolate?

The chocolate donut mix is a wonderful cake-like donut that really takes care of the chocolate-sweet craving. Don't overbake, and be prepared for some crumbles, but all in all a wonderful mix. Also delicious with low carb vanilla ice cream! Have bought before, and will continue to do so.

These donuts taste great. I prepared donut holes with it. At first I did not like the glaze, but just the delicious flavor of the donuts was enough. Then I discovered that if you leave the glaze from one day to the other it tastes great. It is a wonderful product, just like many of the products made by Dixie Diner.

These are pretty good, a bit more like cakey texture. Go easy on the butter though or else it'll taste a bit too salty. I wish the glaze would sit on top rather than getting absorbed into the doughnut.

I'm so disappointed. I had made donuts with these a couple of years ago and they turned out just fine. However, I just tried to make these donuts again and it was...off somehow.

The taste was a bit different from what I had expected. Yeah, I know low carb donuts will never taste just like Krispy Kremes. Even allowing for that, they still had an unsatisfying taste. Even if you have a very loose definition of a donut, there's still no way this mix would pass muster. Especially for the price.

Your taste buds and your wallet are much better off if you use a homemade recipe and modify it to your diet.

Didn't taste good to me, but it wasn't in-edible. I am a WLS patient on a low carb/ higher fat diet, so I opted to make doughnut holes with the chocolate mix in a fryer vs. a doughnut baking pan. That still didn't make them tasty. Perhaps the frying was a no-no with the mix. It came out really dry and salty tasting. The glaze was a huge let down. How??? Its' just sugar sub and butter????

I would say be more creative and make your own then try this pretty packaged "easy" kit.

The batter Tasted Great, they smelled great while cooking, and even the first few bites tasted great, but it seems the cooler they got the more unbearable they got. Aftertaste became more awful also. I think its in the frosting, I'm not sure. I used unsalted butter.

Unless you like chewing on a warm and fluffy salt block, stay away from these. If you are craving chocolate try the Dixie Diner Carb Counters Snackin' Cake in German Chocolate...if you are craving a warm cinnamon-y type donut, then go to the Dixie Carb Snacking Cake in the Cinnamon. If it's just a donut you want, then put the cake mixes in a donut pan, but whatever you do, stay away from these awful salty tasting- and especially after-tasting donuts. I usually like their products and I follow the directions to a T (meaning I did use non-salted butter in this)--but this is just plain nasty. Buy the Snackin' Cake or Muffin Mixes instead. You are warned....

I love Krispy Kreme donuts and I wasn't expecting the glazed donut mix to taste the same. I had to purchase the donut pan so I could bake the donuts. The donuts turned out fluffy and smelled great. When I tasted the first one, I got half way through it, and I had to throw it out, including the rest of the donuts. I don't know if it was the glaze, or the donuts, but they tasted like pure salt. Now I understand why the recipe calls for unsalted butter, which I did follow. The salt taste stayed with me for several hours. I will never eat them, again! If the rating scale had a zero, I would use that rating for this product.

I thought the glaze was awful! It's got an extremely strong artificial sweet taste. Too much for me to handle.
The donuts without the glaze would be better but still not worth the cost. I would much rather spend my extra treat carbs on things that taste less "fake". I guess I just had high hopes that I could have my donuts and eat them too... Such is a low carb diet! Sorry Dixie Diner, I do love your other items though just not these crazy donuts!! YUCK!

I tried the glazed version awhile back and being a donut lover I had high hopes. After cooking they certainly looked somewhat donut-like and after applying the glaze they looked downright inviting. Any similarity between them and donuts pretty much ended there, however. The texture wasn't right for a donut -- more fragile and lacking any chewiness. The flavor was somewhat bitter and salty, and the glaze tasted almost sour. It wasn't a good experience. I sometimes think about trying them again to see if it was a bad batch or if maybe they have improved the recipe . . . but I need to wait until I have forgotten that first batch.

NASTY!!!! I was excited to make these after reading all the reviews. Perhaps I should have used unsalted butter in this but the "donuts" and glaze were both way too salty and way way too sweet. I made donut holes that turned out more like cookies. I baked them as recommended and found after they had cooled they were too rubbery. Putting them in the toaster to crisp up the outside helped get more of that slight crunch chocolate glazed donuts have from being fried.

Maybe frying these would be better (for someone on Atkins). The glaze was just disgusting, even the second day. Far too sweet and just got absorbed into the donuts.

I also bought the glazed ones. I will use unsalted butter and some coconut oil instead. I will also try frying them.

I bought both kinds of the Dixie Diner Donut Mixes, and was so looking forward to them. I have not made the chocolate yet, but today I baked the Glazed donut mix....UGH!!!! I followed the directions to the letter, but it turned out horribly BITTER, and sort of stung my mouth. Could it have been old and rancid?? I could find no expiration date on this package. I was so disappointed, that I hesitate to make the chocolate donut mix. The glaze was okay, it was definitely the donut part of the item that was quite bitter and "off". After eating part of one, and throwing out the last part of it, I actually threw all the rest of them into the trash...they were THAT BAD. Drats!

I made these exactly as the package tells you to and these were absolutely disgusting, I was so upset that I paid that much for them, now I like most everything and I love Netrition, but these were horrible in my opinion and very costly to just throw out....very disappointed!!!

Very disappointed with the glazed doughnut mix. We followed directions precisely, and the doughnut holes came out looking like flat cookies and tasted like baking soda. The glaze was nice, but a gallon of it wouldn't have helped these doughnuts
